Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
5 goals in 25 appearances (0.2 per game) for a title-challenging side. Add 1 assist for 6 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 67, Mella carries the 4th-highest potential of the wingers in the Segunda División (top 15%). In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.34 goal contributions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~79), then tapers with age. At 21, Mella sits on 71.2, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Mella's projected Rating — 67 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
